We present a case of severe H1N1 influenza with hypoxemic acute respiratory failure necessitating mechanical ventilation benefited from noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV). The NIPPV may be of great use in treating patients with H1N1-related acute respiratory distress syndrome in a resource poor setting or when invasive ventilator is unavailable.
我们报告了一例严重甲型H1N1流感合并低氧性急性呼吸衰竭患者,该患者需要机械通气,无创正压通气(NIPPV)对其有益。在资源匮乏的环境中或无法获得有创呼吸机时,NIPPV在治疗甲型H1N1流感相关急性呼吸窘迫综合征患者中可能非常有用。
